Trouble is I haven’t seen the light
Radiating thru the darkness
Thru the night.
No one
Calls my name
No one holds my hand.
Alone in the quandary
Where oh where
Do I stand.

Do I tell the stories
I know
Or do I let them go.
My heart doesn’t know
The way
The way I should go.
My spirit tells me
Feel the earth
Breathe the skies.
And the beings that live
Purely
Will guide you, they’ll never lie.

Sought to seek the answer the spirits speak
Never once thinking to look inside
To see the answer that I need
The answer, which is here inside of me.

Let me write
Something smart and clever
Telling the world
Secrets they didn’t know.
Pour my thoughts out
Convey all the things
I understand
And now know.
Hope they show
Compassion, loving kindness
And a knowledge given me
That til then I didn’t know.

Golden leaves swaying
On a November breeze
Floating, cascading down
Landing on soon to be
Frozen, winter ground.
Woods are silent, hushed, listening
To the still quiet as a hunter lurks
Waiting to kill in the midst
Of golden leaves falling, raining down
Upon barren, dying ground.

I spoke to you
You spoke to me
Together we spoke of majesty.

The world doesn’t leave me far behind
It holds me, helps me
Giving all I need
All
That’s divine.

I hear the voices call
They echo through the valley
Down the lane and thru
The crowd at the mall.
Not sure just what they’re saying
No clear words call
But their meaning I hear, I feel
With every voice that speaks
Every echoing call.
~ Patrice

Let the quiet come in
Let it spread throughout
Your body, your very soul.
Let hurry not come in
Keep it at bay, say no words
That make it run away
With your solitude.
Deep breath in, slowly let it out
Embrace quiet
Feel it spread throughout.
~ Patrice
